                                                   Part- 49

Geet keeps on splashing water and is fully drenched...

Maan knocks as she has been staying in for a long time...

Maan: Geeet

Geet couldn't respond...she couldn't speak...

Maan: Geet

Maan keeps on knocking and Geet opens the door still hidingherself from him...

Maan finds her wet and he takes the towel and dress for herto change...

Geet grabs them and locks the door again...

She quickly changes and looks at herself in the mirror...

Geet: Geet, ab jo hua so hua, ussko ek bhura sapna smajkebhool jao

Geet thinks...isse bhura sapna kehthi ho? tum toh pagalho Geet

Geet: haan, mein pagal ho g ayi hoon

Geet thinks...Geet, apne dil se pooch, kya tum abhi kushnahi ho?

Geet: kush toh hoon, lekhin? Kya ye teek hoga?

Geet thinks...hare, iss mein galat kya hai? ye toh harladhki ke zindagi mein hotha hai

Geet: par mujhe kyun lagtha hai ki ye ehsaas sirf meinnemehsoos kiya hai aur woh nahi

Geet thinks...aaise hotha toh woh tummara itna parwa nahikartha

Geet: phir woh mujhse dhoor kyun jaathe?

Geet thinks...kyunki tum dar gayi thi

Geet: nahi, aaisa kuch nahi hai

Geet tries to convince herself that it's just herimaginations...

She keeps staring at herself but she couldn't come to anyconclusion...she is still confused...

She is angry with herself and she doesn't know how long shehas been standing there like a crazy fool...she waits for Maan to fallasleep before she could go to sleep...

She peeps out and finds him sleeping or pretending to besleeping...

She gently moves her move to the bed without making anynoise...

She finds a new barriers in the middle...Maan has pilledup the pillows to create a wall inbetween...he felt that they needed it verybadly tonight...atleast Maan needed the Maan rekha...you can say...

Geet feels embarassed that she has been the reason for allthis and she feels ashamed to sleep alongside Maan...she takes the couchinstead...

Now Geet is happy that Maan booked a big suit for she neededthis distance very badly...

She sleeps on the couch itself and stops her conversationswith Maan while they return...

Maan also feels comforted by the silence and he didn't wantto disturb her any more...

At KM...

Dadi eagerly awaits their return as she is expecting adifferent Maneet...

Dadi had noticed the recent changes in Maan and she is surethat during the trip Maneet would have realized their love for each other...

That said so Maneet did realize their heart's yearnings butthat didn't help in bringing them closer...

Geet is in a confused state, like a cat on the wall notknowing what should be her further tactics to handle her new pressures and howto keep her feelings in check until she gets to know what's Maan thinking abouther, after what happened between them in Mumbai...

Maan's last move didn't amuse her and she now has a feelingthat Maan hasn't changed his mind and he is still the same DD, who wants her toget out of his house, and his life at the earliest possible... 

And as far as Maan is concerned he was confused earlier andnow he is clear in his mind, he will have to wait for Geet to realize herlove...

And Maan knows that he need not wait longer for he hasalready seen the love in her eyes...

They have already confessed her love for Maan...

Geet enters KM first followed by Maan...

And they act as if they are strangers who have never metbefore...

Geet goes and hugs Dadi...

Dadi: Geet, kaisa tha Mumbai trip?

Geet answers without any excitement...: achchi thi

Dadi looks at Maan for his reactions but Maan has notstopped, he is on his way to his room...

This is strange...

Dadi expected Geet to have loads of complains against Maanand Maan having an answer for them  all...

Dadi is disappointed to see them like this...

Where has all the excitement gone? What happened to theirbickering?

This silence is too dangerous...

What about Dadi's plans?

If they don't speak to each other like this and keepavoiding each other then how would they know each other's love...how willthey even know about their hatred atleast...

Nafrat se shuru hotha pyaar ki kahaani hi zyada stronghothi...

Aur yahan toh pyaar, nafrat, batein, galiyan, gussa kuchnahi hai...

This cold war sontinues fot the next few days even thoughdadi tries her best to end this and bring them back into the battle field...

But Maneet are very cautious that they don't come togetherat any point...

They keep away from one another...

Geet's college has started for the next academic year andshe uses this as an excuse to avoid Maan completely...

She rushes to college earlier so that she can leave beforeMaan comes down for his breakfast...

Maan too changes his routine so that he can avoid comingacross Geet...

He never steps into the OH and mostly remains confined tohis room...

Dadi is worried that this is not good...

This is the first time that KM is so empty and lifelessafter Geet had come here...

And now dadi fears that Geet has no impact on Maan andneither of them seem to be worried...

They are happt with themselves enjoying their loneliness,they need this space to know what they really want...what the other mean tothem?  What is it like to live withouteach other...

This distance actually brings them closer...they keepthinking about each other and begin to miss one another...their heart yearnsfor that single glimpse of the other...

They feel as if their life is empty and meaningless whenthey don't get to see each other even if it's just a glimpse from a longdistance...

Every morning starts with the longing to see their love andends with the recollections of their secret glimpses and the happiness that itbrings...

If a day passes without seeing each other then the night goessleepless...

Geet passes her night at the window looking at Maan's roomand Maan even comes to her door and wiats infront of it for hours hesitating toknock her door and disrurb her sleep...

And he has no reason to disturb her at this time of theday...

And this anxiety keeps growing and their desire to just seethem turns into a greed to keep watching each other as much as possible...

Geet starts stalking Maan secretly and Maan too couldn'tstay away from Geet any longer...

He walks into her room unexpectedly just to scare her andstare her...

He pretends to have lost some file and takes his time tosearch it...

He likes to stay with her and tries to get closer as much aspossible...

Geet is confident that he can utmost stare her and yell ather but he can never stay away from her...

Maan creates these excuses to be with Geet...she likesthese surprise visits and keeps looking forward to Maan's visit...

When Maan ctaches her red handed while stalking him Geet isnot afraid and she accepts that she had been looking at him only and he can'tstop her from doing so in the future...

Maan goes speechless and he could only admire her more...

Dadi keeps praying to babaji to do something and break theice inbetween Maneet...

Dadi tries her best to make them realize what they aremissing but they keep their love for themselves...

Dadi even thought of honing her acting skills again...

Luckily Dadi need not fall sick for babaji has come to herhelp this time...

It's festive time at Amristar and Geet's family invite theirdaughter's family to tale part in the festivities along with them...

Moreover they haven't seen Geet for a long time and shedidn't even go home for the holidays...

Geet too wanted to meet them...

Dadi is happy to send Geet to Amritsar, Dadi is planning touse this trip to bring Maneet closer ...

Dadi knows that Geet wouldn't accept to go with Maan aloneand so she says that dadi would accompany Geet to Amritsar as she wishes tovisit the Golden temple...

Geet gets ready for her trip...

Dadi waits for the right time and starts her drama...

She says that she is having trouble breathing and the winterhas triggered her weezing problems...

She is afraid she couldn't accompany Geet to Amritsar as thewinter would be severe there, Punjab ki sardi...

Poor Geet, she has to cancel her trip for she can't leavedadi alone like this...

Dadi says that she can manage and Geet need not cancel hertrip for her parents would be disappointed...

Geet is still not convinced and when Maan finds out thatGeet is upset b'coz she couldn't go home for the festivals Maan offers to takecare of dadi and Geet can go home as per plan...

Maan tells Dadi that he will stay with Dadi and will cancelall his appointments out of town...

He will take a break from his work inorder to take care ofdadi...

Dadi's plan back fired and Dadi like this idea at all...

Dadi then says that though dadi would love to send Geet sheis not ready to send her alone...

Geet can go home if she has got company...

Dadi asks Pinky and Adi to say that they are busy beforeproposing to Geet...

Geet asks Pinky and Maan asks Adi if they could accompanyGeet...

All are busy and Geet is very upset...

Maan is worried to see her so much disappointed and he wantsto help her somehow...

He tells Dadi that he wants Geet to somehow go and join herfamily for the festivals...

Maan thinks that Geet could ask her brother lucly to comeand take her...
